Has nothing to do with the poor officiating in the SIUE game. I wasn’t responding to your watching of the SIUE game which puts your social life on par with mine. I was just amused seeing a post about how we always get screwed at home while other programs get favorable officiating at home. More of a commentary about fan bases, that post could be on any fan message board including programs known for getting home cooking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If every team gets bad calls, who is paying off the refs to swing the game? I don’t think very many people believe refs are intentionally screwing certain teams. I’m of the opinion that referring is a super hard job. Especially at high levels. College needs so many officials that some bad ones slip through the cracks. Nobody is trying to screw a team it’s just an extremely hard job so a lot of mistakes are made. Subconsciously officials might slightly favor home teams so they can avoid having 8000 people boo them. billikenbill likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billikenbill Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Anybody catch the ending of the SIUE Little Rock game? SIUE scores at 12.1 to go up 4, Little Rock cuts it to 2 at 5.0, then a series of SIUE coaching and playing blunders has the game tied at 2.1. Little Rock doesn’t contest the pass or have anyone in backcourt and SIUE fires in a 55 footer FTW. Those last 5 seconds are a clinic on what not to do late in the game to protect a lead, or defend a desperation inbounds play. The Cougars seem to have righted the ship as they’ve won 2 straight after dropping 4 in a row. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn’t Gordon about to pick a fight after the Seton Hall game, and everyone had to hold him back? Such a head case…see he’s averaging 12/7, still on the Grambling roster, Good for him, he’s better off there anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
